Benjamin van Loon and Mary J. Levine co-founded Anobium in 2011 with the goal of becoming the only independent literary publisher solely focused on the strange, surreal and experimental.

In the space of four years, we did just that, publishing nearly a half-dozen books, engaging in challenging collaborative projects, hosting events and making our mark in the literary world. We are preserving this website indefinitely as a testament to the great work of everyone who participated in the Anobium experiment.
